Depositor Comments

An expression construct for the TGF-beta RII gene was constructed by placing a TGF-beta RII cDNA between a cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter and an simian virus 40 polyadenylation signal.

Please note that according to the map, this plasmid has 2 CMV promoters, so sequence confirmation with this primer may have limited success. Restriction digest with BamHI/HindIII is recommended for plasmid confirmation.
